What the 2026–2027 No Surprises Act changes mean for your bottom line
The rules just changed in providers' favor — the filing fee dropped from $115 to $15, up to 50 related services can now be batched into one dispute, and new transparency requirements arrive in 2027. In 35 minutes plus live Q&A, a practicing neurosurgeon walks through what it means for your out-of-network recovery, and what to do before the deadlines.
What you'll learn
- What actually changed in the 2026–2027 rules — the fee drop, batching, and 2027 transparency requirements
- Why providers win ~85% of IDR disputes, yet most out-of-network money still goes uncollected
- The three places practices lose — deadlines, the QPA anchor, and the offer — and how to fix each
- How to decide between filing in-house, using a contingency firm, or outsourcing — with the real numbers
Who it's for
Practice owners and administrators, revenue-cycle leaders, and hospital-based groups (ER, anesthesia, radiology, pathology) with out-of-network volume.
